Crochet Pattern: X Marks The Spot Placemat

This is a nice lacy, openwork placemat that will impress family and friends when you invite them over! Make your own set of crocheted placemats in any color you want. You’ll also save money since you can crochet these using cheap cotton or acrylic yarn.

I really like the stitch pattern. When I first saw the placemat, my thoughts ran immediately to “It looks like a corset!” The stitch pattern would make a beautiful top, with the thick bars going vertically.

Three Rivers Crochet (CGOA Pittsburgh chapter) is hosting a Holiday Sale in December; this placemat pattern would be great for this sale (with all the proceeds going to Rwanda Knits and Pittsburgh VA programs). I like that the pattern uses medium (worsted) yarn.
